Intro To CNC Machining | Zero To Maker Workshop

🔗 *The full Workshop* : _https://core-electronics.com.au/courses/zero-to-maker-workshop/_

In this video of the Zero to Maker series, we are diving into CNC machining, a manufacturing process that makes parts by cutting away material with a milling bit. This process fills a gap that 3D printers and laser cutters can't fill by allowing you to cut thick materials, soft metals, and very large parts. CNC machining has a reputation for being a little daunting, but in this video, we take a look at making a giant molecule kit with a CNC machine and demonstrate that it can be quite an easy process.
